For windows- go to the above link. use any of the software for free. i recommend InfraRecorder.

VOB format is to convert your video clip into DVD format.

 

If you want the filesize to be the same, you copy it as data.

 

But if you do that, you can only view it if your DVD player can plays DivX.

thxs bros... wil try out those software and now only i roughly know what the heck vob is...

VOB is the DVD format, if you take a DVD and put it in a PC you will see some files with the .VOB extension. As the other bros mentioned, burning as data the size will remain the same, just that your DVD player must have the Divx capability to play the files.

 

In your burner software, for the media type, select DVD, but the data type, select data, not DVD. Then just drop the files you want into the compilation and burn.
